This week, Eric invites James Beard Award-winning chef Chris Shepherd onto the podcast to talk about life since stepping away from Underbelly Hospitality last year and behind-the-scenes scoop on his TV show, “Eat Like a Local,” premiering this September. They also discuss the Southern Smoke Foundation and festival, his bi-monthly “Wine Guy” column for CultureMap, consulting for other restaurants, whether he plans to return to the restaurant business, and much more.
